Romans 9: 15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

This verse reminds me of a conference talk given by Elder Holland about the parable of the laborers. He points out that the Lord says I will be kind to whom I will. The Lord is loving and kind and merciful. Having compassion is an attribute that the Lord wants us to have for all men.

Ephesians 2: 4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,

God is our loving father. We must understand that he truly wants us to be happy.

Philippians 2: 1 If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies.

I have found so many verses about how much mercy God has for us, I know that he loves us and knows us personally.

1 Timothy 6: 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.

Doing our best to be Like heavenly father and Jesus will bring so much love and joy.

Philemon 1: 20 Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.

Joy, happiness and mercy describe our wonderful father in heaven.
